too bad she is not in charge of the entire state Animal Services Department. She IS what they need: Humane souls with a real caring heart. The cruel monsters we have right now are exactly what is wrong with our society and should never be working near a poor, defenseless animal. GOD Bless you Dafna and I hope we hear more great things about your bravery & compassion in the near future, I hope you never give up your true calling working to protect our innocent & voiceless

I lived in Boca Raton for 3 year a few years ago and am very familiar with Broward County Animal Care and Control. I can tell you with no hesitation that Broward County Animal Care & Control is a HIGH KILL facility. They kill MANY MANY animals. Volunteers are told not to ask about animals that are "gone" from the previous day. It is sad and disgusting and frankly, it should be stopped.

I lived in Boca Raton for 3 year a few years ago and am very familiar with Broward County Animal Care and Control. I can tell you with no hesitation that Broward County Animal Care & Control is a HIGH KILL facility. They kill MANY MANY animals. Volunteers are told not to ask about animals that are "gone" from the previous day. It is sad and disgusting and frankly, it should be stopped. Florida has a huge animal overpopulation problem for many reasons (tons of backyard breeders, lots of housing foreclosures leading to animal dumping, various cultural beliefs that animals are disposable, etc.) That being said, there are facilities and rescue groups that are "No Kill" -- I volunteered at a few of such facilities during my time in Florida. The number of dogs of all kinds (pure breeds and otherwise) that are left in utter neglect is alarming. In South Florida alone, thousands of dogs are put down each DAY. Awareness is the key. Don't buy a dog, ever.

There should be some alternative to killing healthy animals, this country is in a sad state that this is what we do instead of massive spay neuter programs. I would not be able to euthanize healthy animals either.

Please do not give up.you are a hero. I am an animal activist always posting exactly this.if all animal officers nationwide organized,and simply said "we will no longer kill another healthy animal", other actions and laws would be forced to happen.every animal everywhere should be mandatorily registered.also spayed/neutered,and if funds exist,microchiped.this way all animals abused/wandering/etc, could be tracked to the person responsible,law changes would insure steep fines, long prison...
